Hello— I'm the author of this post, I did not intend for it to receive wide circulation, and only have shared it in the past year with a few friends and MFEK users to explain my views on forking in Rust, why MFEK relies on so many vendorized crates etc. I added some more recent commentary to the comments of the Gist: https://gist.github.com/ctrlcctrlv/978b3ee4f55d4b4ec415a985e01cb1c9#gistcomment-3975534 https://gist.github.com/ctrlcctrlv/978b3ee4f55d4b4ec415a985e... I have also updated the Gist itself with a note: > I did not submit this to Hacker News and did not intend that this post would have high circulation but have no real problem with it being there or with it having such. I have [more recent comments below](https://gist.github.com/ctrlcctrlv/978b3ee4f55d4b4ec415a985e01cb1c9#gistcomment-3975534 https://gist.github.com/ctrlcctrlv/978b3ee4f55d4b4ec415a985e...). This post is from January 2020 and predates the Modular Font Editor K (MFEK) project. Cheers.
